Two moments in Lebanon


The first one is a ride through Dahiya, a densely populated area of South Beirut. Our driver explains the significance of the black banners displayed over the street.


The second is a chat over tea in the mountains on the road to Beit ed-Dine. The driver explained later he was trying to reassure our host about her worries over pessimistic predictions she'd heard for the New Year.
